An announcement.D. An official report.BPassenger pigeons(旅鸽) once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks(群) so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons – a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in theUnited States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly, the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century, the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans’ need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.24. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons _______.A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. were the largest bird population in the US25. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons’ ______.A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution26. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A. To seek pleasure.B. To save other birds.C. To make money.D. To protect crops.27. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A. It was ignored by the public.B. It was declared too late.C. It was unfair.D. It was strict.CA typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in people’s mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭) and a chair. The whip gets all of the attention, but it’s mostly for show. In reality, it’s the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g. lose weight, start a business, travel more) ---- only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrongthings, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn’t have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to accomplish, someone you want to become … take immediate action. If you’re clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.28. Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A. To show off his skills.B. To trick the lion.C. To get ready for a fight.D. To entertain the audience.29. In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A. They feel puzzled over choices.B. They hold on to the wrong things.C. They find it hard to make changed.D. They have to do something for show.30. What is the author’s at titude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. Tolerant.B. Doubtful.C. Respectful.D. Supportive.31. When the world is “waving a chair in your face”, you’re advised to _______.A. wait for a better chanceB. break your old habitsC. make a quick decisionD. ask for clear guidanceDAs more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000—7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations ---- UNESCO and National Geographic among them ---- have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture,grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials ---- including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes ---- which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now, through the two organizations that he has founded ---- the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project ---- Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be savedand reconnected with speech communities.32. Many scholars are making efforts to _____.A. promote global languageB. rescue disappearing languagesC. search for language communitiesD. set up language research organizations33. What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Having full records of the languages.B. Writing books on language teaching.C. Telling stories about language users.D. Living with the native speakers.34. What is Turin’s book based on?A. The cultural studies in India.B. The documents available at Yale.C. His language research in Bhutan.D. His personal experience in Nepal.35. Which of the following best describes Turin’s work?A. Write, sell and donate.B. Record, repair and reward.C. Design, experiment and report.D. Collect, protect and reconnect.第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

If you're clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.（1）Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A To show off his skills.B To trick the lion.C To get ready for a fight.D To entertain the audience.（2）In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A They feel puzzled over choices.B They hold on to the wrong things.C They find it hard to make changed.D They have to do something for show.（3）What is the author's attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3?A Tolerant.B Doubtful.C Respectful.D Supportive.（4）When the world is "waving a chair in your face"，you're advised to ________.A wait for a better chanceB break your old habitsC make a quick decisionD ask for clear guidance14.As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization（UNESCO）.In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations—UNESCO and National Geographic among them—have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials—including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes—which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now, through the two organizations that he has founded—the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project—Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet. Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.【长难句分析】：Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition.翻译：耶鲁大学麦克米伦中心专门研究喜马拉雅山语言和口述传统的科学家马克·都灵遵循了这一传统。

When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided,the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options,the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion?How often do you have something you want to achieve（e.g.lose weight,start a business,travel more）---only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best,the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information.The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things,and so we take less action,make less progress,and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn’t have to be that way.Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face,remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing.You just need to get started.Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people.If you have somewhere you want to go,something you want to accomplish, someone you want to become…take immediate action.If you’re clear about where you want to go,the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.28.Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A.To show off his skills.B.To trick the lion.C.To get ready for a fight.D.To entertain the audience.29.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A.They feel puzzled over choices.B.They hold on to the wrong things.C.They find it hard to make changed.D.They have to do something for show.30.What is the author’s attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph3?A.TolerantB.DoubtfulC.RespectfulD.Supportive31.When the world is“waving a chair in your face”,you’re advised to.A.wait for a better chanceB.break your old habitsC.make a quick decisionD.ask for clear guidanceDAs more and more people speak the global languages of English,Chinese,Spanish,and Arabic,other languages are rapidly disappearing.In fact,half of the6,000-7,000languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century,according to the United Nations Educational,Scientific,and Cultural Organization(UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss,scholars from a number of organizations---UNESCO and National Geographic among them---have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin,a scientist at the Macmillan Center,Yale University,who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas,is following in that tradition.His recently published book,A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture,grows out of his experience living,looking and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Tangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin,who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayans reaches of India,Nepal,Bhutan,and China.But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials---including photographs,films,tap recordings,and field notes---which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now,through the two organizations that he has founded---the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project---Turin has started a campaign to make such documents,found in libraries and stores around the world,available not just to scholars but to the youngers.Generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet.Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.32.Many scholars are making efforts to.A.promote global languageB.rescue disappearing languagesC.search for language communitiesD.set up language research organizations33.What does“that tradition”in Paragraph3refer to?A.Having full records of the languages.B.Writing books on language teaching.C.Telling stories about language users.D.Living with the native speakers.34.What is Turin’s book based on?A.The cultural studies in India.B.The documents available at Yale.C.His language research in Bhutan.D.His personal experience in Nepal.35.Which of the following best describes Turin’s work?A.Write,sell and donate.B.Record,repair and reward.C.Design,experiment and report.D.Collect,protect and reconnect.第二节（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

official report．24．（12分）Passenger pigeons（旅鸽）once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers．Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks（群）so large that they darkened the sky for hours．It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point，there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons﹣a number equal to 24to 40percent of the total bird population in the United States，making it perhaps the most abundant bird in theworld．Even as late as 1870when their numbers had already become smaller，a flock believed to be 1mile wide and 320miles （about 515kilometers）long was seen near Cincinnati．Sadly，the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing．Where the birds were most abundant，people believed there was an ever﹣lasting supply and killed them by the thousands．Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain，waited until pigeons had settled to feed，then threw large nets over them，taking hundreds at a time．The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants．By the closing decades of the 19th century，the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans'need for wood，which scattered （驱散）the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north，where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline．Soon the great flocks were gone，never to be seen again．In 1897，the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons，but by then，no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10years．The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County，Ohio，in 1900．For a time，a few birds survived under human care．The last of them，known affectionately as Martha，died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1，1914．24．In the 18th and early 19th centuries，passenger pigeons．A．were the biggest bird in the worldB．lived mainly in the south of AmericaC．did great harm to the natural environmentD．were the largest bird population in the US25．The underlined word"undoing"probably refers to the pigeons'．A．escape B．ruin C．liberation D．evolution 26．What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons？A．To seek pleasure B．To save other birdsC．To make money D．To protect crops．27．What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan？A．It was ignored by the public B．It was declared too late．C．It was unfair D．It was strict．28．（12分）A typical lion tamer （驯兽师）in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip （鞭）and a chair．The whip gets all of the attention，but it's mostly for show．In reality，it's the chair that does the important work．When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face，the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time．With its focus divided，the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next．When faced with so many options，the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair．How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion？How often do you have something you want to achieve （e．g．lose weight，start a business，travel more）﹣﹣﹣﹣only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress？This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best，the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information．The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things，and so we take less action，make less progress，and stay the same when we could be improving．It doesn't have to be that way．Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face，remember this：All you need to do is focus on one thing．You just need to get started．Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people．If you have somewhere you want to go，something you want to accomplish，someone you want to become …take immediate action．If you're clear about where you want to go，the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way．28．Why does the lion tamer use a chair？A．To show off his skills．B．To trick the lion．C．To get ready for a fight．D．To entertain the audience．29．In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair？A．They feel puzzled over choices．B．They hold on to the wrong things．C．They find it hard to make changed．D．They have to do something for show．30．What is the author's attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3？A．Tolerant B．Doubtful C．Respectful D．Supportive．31．When the world is"waving a chair in your face"，you're advised to．A．wait for a better chanceB．break your old habitsC．make a quick decisionD．ask for clear guidance．32．（12分）As more and more people speak the global languages of English，Chinese，Spanish，and Arabic，other languages are rapidly disappearing．In fact，half of the 6，000﹣7，000languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century，according to the United Nations Educational，Scientific，and Cultural Organization （UNESCO）．In an effort to prevent language loss，scholars from a number of organizations﹣﹣﹣﹣UNESCO and National Geographic among them﹣﹣﹣﹣have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect．Mark Turin，a scientist at the Macmillan Center，Yale University，who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas，is following in that tradition．His recently published book，A grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture，grows out of his experience living，working，andraising a family in a village in Nepal．Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin，who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India，Nepal，Bhutan，and China．But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record．At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials﹣﹣﹣﹣including photographs，films，tape recordings，and field notes﹣﹣﹣﹣which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection．Now，through the two organizations that he has founded﹣﹣﹣﹣the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project﹣﹣﹣﹣Turin has started a campaign to make such documents，found in libraries and stores around the world，available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected．Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet，Turin notes，the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities．32．Many scholars are making efforts to．A．promote global languageB．rescue disappearing languagesC．search for language communitiesD．set up language research organizations33．What does"that tradition"in Paragraph 3refer to？A．Having full records of the languages．B．Writing books on language teaching．C．Telling stories about language users．D．Living with the native speakers．34．What is Turin's book based on？A．The cultural studies in India．B．The documents available at Yale．C．His language research in Bhutan．D．His personal experience in Nepal．35．Which of the following best describes Turin's work？A．Write，sell and donate．B．Record，repair and reward．C．Design，experiment and report．D．Collect，protect and reconnect．第二节（共1小题；每小题15分，满分15分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．36．（15分）The jobs of the future have not yet been invented．（36）By helping them develop classic skills that will serve them well no matter what the future holds．1．CuriosityYour children need to be deeply curious．（37）Ask kids，"What ingredients （配料）can we add to make these pancakes even better

new from it．（38）There are a dozen different things you can do with them．Experimenting with materials to create something new can go a long way in helping them develop their creativity．3．Personal

with you．B．And we can't forget science education．C．We can give kids chances to think about materials in new ways．D．We can do this in real life or ask questions about characters in stories．E．Gardening is another great activity for helping kids develop this skill．F．So how can we help our kids prepare for jobs that don't yet exist？G．Being able to communicate ideas in a meaningful way is a valuable skill．第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分55分）第一节完形填空（满分40分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．41．（40分）As a general rule，all forms of activity lead to boredom when they are performed on a routine

Cleveland，Ohio．It （61）（be）unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up．The river was so polluted that it（62）（actual）caught fire and burned．Now，years later，this river is one of （63）most outstanding

numbers．Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks（群）so large that they darkened the sky for hours．It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point，there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons﹣a number equal to 24to 40percent of the total bird population in the United States，making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world．Even as late as 1870when their numbers had already become smaller，a flock believed to be 1mile wide and 320miles （about 515kilometers）long was seen near Cincinnati．Sadly，the abundance of passenger pigeons may have

make money D．To protect crops．27．What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan？BA．It was ignored by the public B．It was declared too late．C．It was unfair D．It was strict．【分析】文章主要讲述了旅鸽的灭绝的故事，由于人们警惕意识弱，相关法律出台太晚，最后一只旅鸽也在100年前死去．【解答】24．D．推理判断题．根据第二段的内容可知，据计算，旅鸽数量最多时，有30多亿只，相当于美国鸟类总数的24%﹣40%．到1870年，旅鸽的数量已经减少了，但是，有人在Cincinnati附近看到鸽群的规模为1英里宽，320英里长．由此可见，在18至19世纪，旅鸽的数量最多．第一段的第二句也是关键信息．故选D．25．B．词义猜测题．根据第三段的内容可知，旅鸽的数量巨大最终导致它们灭绝．undoing意为"毁灭"，与ruin同义．故选B．26．C．细节理解题．根据第三段可知，商业猎人用大网来围捕旅鸽，然后运到大城市卖给餐馆，由此可见，人们捕杀旅鸽主要是为了赚钱．故选C．27．B．推理判断题．根据最后一段的内容可知，1897年密歇根州出台了法律，禁止捕杀旅鸽．那时，人们已经十年没有看到大规模的旅鸽群出没．由此可知，保护旅鸽的法律出台太晚了．故选B．28．（12分）（2014•新课标Ⅰ）A typical lion tamer （驯兽师）in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip （鞭）and a chair．The whip gets all of the attention，but it's mostly for show．In reality，it's the chair that does the important

face"，you're advised to C．A．wait for a better chanceB．break your old habitsC．make a quick decisionD．ask for clear guidance．【分析】本文是一篇议论文．文章以驯兽师拿一把椅子在狮子面前，狮子感到困惑，呆立不动的例子导入，其实我们人也一样，当面对多个选择时，不知该选哪一个，又怕选错了，因此往往进展很小，甚至保持原样．文章旨在告诉我们当遇到多种选择时，要专注一件事，并下决心做下去．【解答】28．A 考查细节理解．根据第一段中"When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face，the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time"可知，当驯兽师拿着椅子在狮子面前时，狮子关注椅子的四条腿，因此椅子用是用来戏耍狮子的．故选A．。
